I did a lot of work on the base for the Hornet this week; I have all the keel blocks cut and I have arrayed them on the base. It looks good and I will start mounting them this weekend hopefully. I intend to screw each block into the base, as I have concerns about wood glue interfering with the stain. Fortunately, I have access to a drill press, so that will help move things along. I also printed out a jig that should allow me to get all the holes right where they need to be (I hope!).
